Over the past years, since starting this blog, I have been amazed at how much the left hate the RIGHT. Is it perhaps because they are WRONG and despise the RIGHT of the truth?
I am no political warrior - quite the opposite. I tend toward the Pollyanna view on life - I always try and see the good in the bad and the upside of adversity.
But too many of us have turned into Mr Inbetween.

When I was a kid, one of my favourite books was “ Washday at the Pa”. Even today, when I do my sheets and big weekly wash, everyone who knows me knows that I am having Washday at the Pa. My Mum still has washday at the Pa and it is never seen as a chore – rather a day when the bed is clean and crisp, smells like sunlight and the towels are fresh from blowing in the breeze all day long.
I love washday at the Pa. When my kids were little, so did they. When bedtime came around, it was easy to get them to scurry off to bed without a grizzle…. The pillowcases freshly ironed, the sheets tightly tucked and crease-free and the sleep that followed was restful and sound.
I found this article and want to share it with you. It sums up what so many now think and feel. Thank goodness they are waking up.
The battlefield is still warm, following Canada’s war on the unvaccinated. The mandates have let up, and both sides stumble back into something that looks like the old normal — except that there is a fresh and present injury done to the people we tried to break. And no one wants to talk about it.
In 1965, Paul Harvey, a radio commentator from America, broadcast some very prophetic words. In these troubled times, I place them here for you to read, digest and ponder.
" If I were the devil... I would not be happy until I had seized the ripest apple on the tree — thee.
So, I would set about however necessary to take over the United States.
If you consider yourself an atheist today, or if you considered yourself an atheist in the past, I’d love to ask you some honest questions. But I do not ask these questions to win a debate. Or to be antagonistic. Or to buttress my own beliefs by exposing alleged weaknesses in your position.
On the contrary, I ask these questions so I can better understand your mindset as an atheist.
One of the most effective strategies employed by LGBTQ+ activists has been to join their movement to the Civil Rights Movement, making gay (or trans) the new black. One of the quickest ways to demolish that comparison is by asking a black person, “When did you come out as black?”
At that moment, the air goes out of the tire and the false comparison is exposed. Obviously, there is a massive difference between skin color, which is not a matter of personal perception and which cannot be hidden and does not need to be announced, and one’s perceived sexual orientation or gender identity.
Back in 2005, the then Health Minister, Tony Abbott had some sage words to say.
I provide an excerpt here for us to reflect upon and wonder what on earth went wrong in our Nation when we saw him not only lose his role as Prime Minister, but later voted out of his Parliamentary Seat and replaced with a wind turbine loving leftie with no clue. Since then, things have gone from bad to worse.

What we are seeing in Sri Lanka is a system failure and that is nothing to celebrate.
There is no victory in system failure.
In fact, it is what these tyrants are counting on. It’s part of the plan and it’s been their business model for decades, as simple as the mafia movies on TV.
The World Bank and the IMF strong-arm world leaders into accepting loans that are designed to bankrupt the nation, while the CIA acts as management, secretly administering to the overthrow of national sovereignty and administering to the nation’s wealth.
The Dutch government is at war with the Dutch farmers, who have used their tractors to shut down critical infrastructure across the country in protest against alleged plans to seize their land to supposedly conform with European Union regulations on wildlife protection and emissions.
It set me to thinking about an article I read recently, written by an Australian farmer back in 2005.

There is evil abroad in the land, and it’s a cancer to our society. Any naïve belief in the inherent goodness of man was shattered on July 4th, 2022, in Highland Park, Illinois.
What would possess—and that’s exactly the right word—a young man with his whole life ahead of him to take to the roof of a building and systematically shoot off about 60 bullets, killing many and wounding dozens?
I received this by email and thought that it was worth posting - the same can be said of all of our military around the world at present.
Having initially named the first two ships HMNZS Daring and HMNZS Dauntless, the Naming Committee has, after intense pressure from The Green Party, renamed them HMNZS Cautious and HMNZS Prudence.
The next five ships are to be HMNZS Empathy, HMNZS Circumspect, HMNZS Nervous, HMNZS Timorous and HMNZS Apologist.
Costing $850 million each, they comply with the very latest employment, equality, health & safety and human rights laws.
